Our business

The LCA Centre is a research institute specialising in studying the environmental impact of packaging and packaging systems.

Our technologically relevant studies stand out thanks to our unique, forensic LCA method based on lab input. Not only is it very precise, it’s also practical and actionable.
All advice and innovation processes are anchored within the legal framework, taking into account both current and upcoming legal obligations. We work closely with Natuur & Milieu and TU Twente. The LCA Centre is a member of IAPRI.
